Glass (Stained & Blown) Crafty Tip Try to view the glass you are thinking of using in the same light source as where the finished piece will be displayed. Don't use a light table, as they almost always use a fluorescent light bulb which gives off a blue white light and will make your glass look a lot different than light from a regular incandescent light bulb or sunlight.

Glass (Stained & Blown) Crafty Tip I make filigree out of lead and copper wire, which I attach to my suncatchers to add decorative accents. Basically, I cut strips of wire (or lead) and use a pair of pliers to twist the material into various shapes. Lead and copper can easily be soldered onto a stained glass project using normal stained glass techniques. This is a fun way to add accents to a project without a whole lot of cutting and grinding!
